Chapter 360 Defense Consultations
"Okay, okay! Everyone, be quiet. We will celebrate Comrade Zhu Jun's promotion at lunch after the meeting. We will ask the kitchen to prepare some delicious dishes!"
"Now let's continue reading the notice from the higher authorities!"
"The following is a mission assigned to our gathering place by the Provincial Military District Command!"
"Comrades, please listen carefully, and those involved please take notes!"
"The higher authorities asked us to assist the military sub-district and do a good job in recruiting new soldiers!"
"The target for this recruitment is 10000 new soldiers!"
10000 people?
After the words were spoken, there was silence for a moment, and all the leading cadres present were thinking about the pros and cons of this matter.
The first is naturally the benefits, such as reducing the population pressure in the gathering place. Chongyi gathering place is huddled in a corner, with almost zero industrial production, so many people are a pure burden...
But having said all the benefits, the leading cadres in the Chongyi gathering place had to consider another issue.
That is, will the positioning of the gathering place change as a result and turn it into a long-term source of troops?
The danger of being a soldier in the end times is self-evident. If it is really regarded as a pure source of soldiers, it will really become Warwickshire, because all the people living there are filler babies.
They serve the people and benefit the people. You can say that they have various interests among each other, but you cannot deny their deep feelings for Chongyi gathering place.
In particular, a large number of them are native Chongyi people!
At least the leading cadres present here would not do such a thing as harming the fellow countrymen and using the survivors as consumables in exchange for their own future and interests!
Therefore, this task that Gu Chengyuan thought was easy to accomplish was actually stuck on the spot.
The entire conference room became unusually quiet. No one spoke or expressed an opinion. It was as if the pause button had been pressed. Even the air became sticky.
No one present is a fool, and no one wants to be the sinner of Chongyi Gathering Place!
Ten thousand people is not a lot for the Chongyi settlement now, and it is reasonable to contribute in times of national crisis.
But what happens after this time?
Next time, and the next time...will they all come from the Chongyi gathering place?
What they are worried about is not the effort, but the worry that once this hole is opened, it will not be closed in the future...
Just like before the end of the world, some regions had to give up their regional interests for the sake of national interests...
But this time, real lives are involved...
There are only 300,000 people in Chongyi gathering place in total. If they are caught and squeezed to death by their superiors in the future, how can they bear the consumption of troops in the whole province?
……
Slowly, Zhu Jun also realized that something was wrong, and his expression began to become ugly...
how?
We have thousands of people and so much equipment, and we have come hundreds of kilometers to help you. Now that we are asked to give us a little help, you all start to make excuses, right?
.........
"Does everyone have any objection to this order?"
"As the person in charge of the Chongyi gathering place, I hereby declare that the gathering place will unconditionally carry out the conscription task assigned by the superiors! And I require all relevant units to fully cooperate with the conscription work of Comrade Zhu Jun, the commander of the military sub-district!"
Things had come to a point where Chongyi could no longer make decisions, so Zhang Zhishun took the initiative to take the blame.
If it really becomes a source of soldiers, then he will be the only one to blame!
If you don't agree now, the gathering place will be destroyed immediately. If you agree now, it can delay its destruction!
And in the final analysis, the fact that Chongyi Army's territory was completely reduced to a source of soldiers was only the worst-case scenario.
It’s still hard to predict what will happen in the future!
"Hahaha, you're all excited, right? Indeed!"
"In previous years, the recruitment work was always too much and the rations were too few. I remember when Zhiwen was the district chief of Yunshan District last year, he even invited me and Lao Zhou to dinner in order to get more recruitment quotas!"
"It's all right now. There are 10000 places available, and the food is plentiful! You don't have to treat me to a meal anymore. Commander Zhu will treat you to a meal instead!"
Zhang Zhishun eased the awkward atmosphere by reminiscing about the past and making a joke.
Hearing this, Zhu Jun's expression was no longer so stiff, and he continued:
"I'm new here too, so I need to ask Mayor Zhang to introduce which comrades I should invite to dinner."
"Hahaha, did you hear that? Lao Wang, Lao Zhang, Lao Li, why don't you stand up and let Captain Zhu recognize you? You're not even actively eating!"
"If you don't go, then Lao Zhou and I will go in your place. Lao Zhou is still telling me about Captain Zhu's meals!"
Amid Zhang Zhishun's hearty jokes, three middle-aged cadres stood up from their seats and laughed enthusiastically.
"Since you said so, we must apply to Commander Zhu. We can work, but we must bring Mayor Zhang and Vice Mayor Zhou with us when we eat!"
"Is Commander Zhu ok?"
"Of course you can. Come to our base and we will give you as much as you want!"
In response to this, Zhu Jun also responded with a smile.
Although he was a little unhappy about what happened just now, Zhu Jun did not intend to make things awkward in order to carry out his work smoothly.
Just assume that they were stunned by the surprise of 10000 conscription spots.
As adults, it’s better to be confused. As long as the desired result is achieved in the end, why bother about the process?
Just like that, with a joke, the storm passed.
……
"Then comrades, let's start our last topic of the day!"
Zhang Zhishun finished speaking
Only at this time did the theme of today's meeting officially begin - gathering area defense work.
After half an hour of friendly negotiations, a defense plan that was acceptable to both the gathering place and Zhu Jun was finally determined.
First of all, the defense of the gathering will be fully taken over by Zhu Jun’s Third Combined Battalion, including the official residence that serves as the administrative center, where two infantry squads will be stationed to protect the personal safety of the top leaders in the gathering.
The original garrison team will be transformed into a security team, responsible for the security management of the survivors within the Chongyi gathering place.
As for the arrangements for the crystal core warriors, both sides tacitly did not mention it.
Throughout the defense consultation meeting, it seemed more like the Chongyi gathering area officials were expressing their submission to Gu Chengyuan and the Ye Province Military District Command in a disguised form.
Because this is tantamount to handing over one's own personal safety to the 3rd Combined Battalion!
The other party has done so much, it is impossible for us to leave nothing for them. That would be too ugly!
Therefore, the crystal core warriors left over from history are tacitly regarded as the other party's private territory.
...
Zhang Zhishun’s move was decisive!
In his opinion, since the 3rd Combined Battalion has entered the city, anything he does will be in vain in the face of the enemy's powerful modern weapons!
How can we prevent it no matter how careful we are?
All strategies are paper tigers in the face of absolute power!
All the weapons in our own gathering place combined might not even have a higher caliber than someone else's cannon. What is there to be stubborn about?
What's more, we have allowed others to station troops here, so why are you still talking about autonomy with your neck stuck in your neck?
Do you really think everyone is a Korean?
The soldier got slapped in the face, but he still licked his face and said that he was the bodyguard he hired?
Cheap or not?
Instead of stumbling around and forcibly maintaining your own sense of psychological security, it is better to just hand it over to the other party, so that you can sell it well.
If people want to live a good life, they must figure out their position and do things that are in line with their own abilities.
The greatest danger for the weak is to develop an inappropriate strong mentality...
As the saying goes, between the wooden goose, the dragon and the snake change
In terms of being able to bend and stretch, Zhang Zhishun has got it just right!
......
After the meeting, Zhu Jun returned to the headquarters of the 3rd Combined Battalion and immediately issued an order for the defense handover!
Amid the roar of diesel engines...
Military vehicles painted in digital jungle camouflage, loaded with fully armed elite soldiers, drove out of the garrison gate.
Like streams of dark green anti-toxin serum, it shuttled through the blue-gray blood vessels of Chongyi Ancient City and flowed towards the various city walls...
It was raining last night and I didn’t close the windows… My computer’s data cable was broken and I couldn’t charge it. I turned it off halfway through writing this, so I wrote the rest on my phone…
Happy National Day everyone!
In addition to the input method of this groove...
